Man Utd Foundation support community during coronavirus lockdown

To date, the Foundation has delivered over 30,000 items of food and drink to Stretford Foodbank, Salford Royal Hospital, Salford Foodbank and a number of other local charitable organisations in Manchester.

Twenty-one Foundation vehicles were used to transport the food and drink, with over 35 volunteer drivers making deliveries. Foundation vehicles also delivered over 450 executive bags to Salford Royal NHS Foundation Trust and the NHS Manchester Foundation Trust Charity, as a way to thank all NHS staff.

A number of Foundation coaches are also working in partner primary, secondary and SEN schools – supporting children of key workers and those who are deemed vulnerable.

Over the past four weeks, the Foundation has been in direct communication with 27 of its partner high schools, supporting direct delivery in 13 of those schools. A total of 25 days have been delivered by high school partnership officers and, in total, the Foundation has engaged with over 150 vulnerable and key worker children.
